This is the contents of the text file:[code]I have a combo box on a form and I want to bind some of the data from the text file, the stuff highlighted in bold, to the combo box.

I have a combobox that is databound to my webservice. Code works perfect.

My issue is I need to be able to call that function from another form. I have a form that I add a new customer with and want to refresh the data in the combo box, and select it has the selected item. How do I do this? I have tried several ways, and it just does not work.

I'm trying to bind data to a combo box but it does not appear to be working. I've setup the DataSet and the DataSetBindingSource and all this appears to be working, within the form design I can expand the little arrow in the ComboBox control and preview the data. This appears to be working but when the application is run, nothing appears in the drop down box.
I have the following code in place:
Code:
cmbSelectCompany.DataSource = ContactsDBDataSet.Company()
cmbSelectCompany.DisplayMember = "CompanyName"
cmbSelectCompany.ValueMember = "CompanyName"
[Code]....
I've done data binding to my Combos and it works fine but my data base has over 260 000 entries, so I can't let user to move trough it, one by one entry until finds a match.What I am looking for is that user select value from Combo Boxes and Text Boxes get filled in with a matching values from the same row.Auto Complete helps in selection but I still can't work it out how to get values to my text boxes.

I have combo box being filled with more than 50 thousand records. it is getting sometime to load and bind the data. I am using datatable to bind the data. I tried using data-reader as well but in vain.
View 3 RepliesI have a windows form that I bind to a datatable via a binding source. The binding is done in code at run time. Eg;Me.txtCode.DataBindings.Add(New System.Windows.Forms.Binding("Text", bsForm, "ToolCode", True)) (bsForm is the binding source)This works well except if the form control is hidden (I have a couple controls on the form that hold Record ID and Version numbers that the user doesn't need to see). Databinding doesn't seem to work reliably for hidden controls.
View 10 Replieswhat I want to achive is to have a centralized control of my data-forms from my toolbars (toolstrip), like navigating (PREV-NEXT), SAVE, DELETE, CANCLE and so on instead of having it in every form. it worked beautifully in my VB6 projects. below are the codes i did in .NET and it don't seem to work and I guessed it about my use of late binding in .NET.
This is what I have done that don't seem to work. In my project module, frm is declared Public as form object Public frm as system.windows.form().form
Im my childforms i want as soon as the forms are load, activated or have focus, should instantiate or create the form object in my frm. [Code] while in my menu or main form (parent form) with toolstrip buttons, this actually where all individual forms are called. [Code]
and it's flagging an error there:
frm.CloseForm is not a member of System.Windows.Forms().Form
and I must say here that I declared all the subs im calling in the childforms PUBLIC, and of-course frm being a late binding type may not have all the Public Method on it.

I am using two autocomplete textboxes and both of them are binding data from the same table. What I want is when I select an item from the autocomplete drop down list of textbox1 not to have the textbox2 value set. Example :
Column1 Column2
Row1 value1 value2
Row2 value3 value3
When I select value1 for textbox1 I get automatically value2 in textbox2. I do not want that.I want when I select value1 for textbox1 , textbox2 to remain empty until I select a value for it (it maybe value3)
I am trying this..
Imports System.Data.OleDb
Public Class Form1
Dim conn As OleDbConnection
Dim cmd As OleDbCommand

I get an error: object reference not set to an instance of an object
can someone please give me basic steps on how to hard code a combo box to display a column from a database?

I am using VB 2008 Express to connect to an Access 2007 database. I have a combo box that is populated by the database. When I used the Access report VBA, I used the AfterUpdate() event to calculate a sum and place the results in a text box. I need to know how to do the same operation in VB 2008 Express using the SelectedIndexChanged event of the combo box.
The combo box is called "cboYearMonth" and is populated by my database, this is working correctly.
The text box that I want the calculated results to appear in is called "ExactPagesTextbox"
I have a query in Access called "JobTypeExact_Query" that contains all the pages that I need. What I need to do is calculate the total number of "Pages" limited to the YEARMONTH selected in the combo box. YEARMONTH is a value in every record in this query.
I have created a link using VS2008 and MS Access 2007.In my database, assume that I have ID, First Name, Last Name, Gender

1 John Smith Male
2 Michael Jackson Male
3 Alicia Keys Female
------------------------
These are the data I have in my database.In my form, assume that I have
ID [Combo Box]
First Name [Text Box]
Last Name [Text Box]
Gender [Text Box]
Now, I have 3 ID in my combo box. If I choose [1] in my combo box, I want the rest of my test box show [John] [Smith] [Male].When I choose [2] in my combo box again, it will show [Michael] [Jackson] [Male].

View 2 RepliesI am having a problem setting up my combo box to pull its menu from a SQL Server table and store to the main data table.Currently my drop down list displays correctly but saves 'System.Data.DataRowView' to the data table. My main data table is called 'Survey' with staffname as a column, then I have another menu table of staff member names which populates the drop down menu.I found that when I remove the DataSource and populate the Items collection instead the combo box saves the correct value as expected but when I use the datasource it saves the words ''System.Data.DataRowView',[code]

You have a pseudo-table class and a pseudo-row class. The row is somewhat generic and has no strongly-typed fields. It follows the typical dictionary interface
Dim age As Object = person("Age") 'accessed via default property Item
vs
Dim age As Integer = person.Age 'an actual property typed as an Integer
What's the pattern to use so that we can bind our pseudo table and its rows to a grid or combo box?
Dim rs As New clsResultSet(tblPeople)
Dim id As Object = rs(0)("Id") '913
Dim name As Object = rs(0)("Name") 'Ted[code].....

I'm in the middle of creating an application that will be used to input customer information whilst the customer is speaking to someone over the phone. This involves the customer giving the employee information such as name, address, postcode etc and the employee inputting that information into text boxes and combo boxes that are in the application.
What I would like to be able to do is after the customers information is given over the phone, I need to be able to send that information to a database which will probably most likely be done by button click. In this case, I'm using Microsoft Access. I'm also hoping that I can do this within Visual Basic coding.
The database is set out with multiple tables which include a customer table and a ticket table and both have multiple fields such as first name, surname in the customers table. Both of these tables are in use with the information that the customer gives over the phone.
I've already asked on other forums and people are where replying giving me third party programs that I could use to implement this, something I don't really want to do.
